In a Jimmy Cliff kind of mood this morning
Edited on Mon Oct-17-05 01:40 AM by southlandshari
Does this song strike a nerve with anyone else? Sigh. Ah well, good night, my beloved Lounge buddies!

"Many Rivers to Cross" (Jimmy Cliff)

Many rivers to cross
But I can`t seem to find my way over
Wandering I am lost as I travel along
The white cliffs of Dover
Many rivers to cross and it`s only my will
That keeps me alive
I`ve been licked, washed up for years and
I merely survive because of my pride.

And this loneliness won`t leave me alone
It`s such a drag to be on your own
My woman left and she didn't say why
Well I guess I have to try.
Many rivers to cross but just where to begin
I`m playing for time
There`ll be times I find myself thinking
Of committing some dreadful crime.

I`ve got many rivers to cross
But I can`t seem to find my way over
Wandering I am lost as I travel along
The white cliffs of Dover
Many rivers to cross and it`s only my will
That keeps me alive
I`ve been licked, washed up for years and,
I merely survive because of my pride.

4. Good night, darlin'!
I'm still here, but not for long. About as tired as I've been in forever and a day, but not sleepy. Got a tough day ahead, and I think I'm subconsciously fighting sleep in order to postpone the inevitable at work...

:hug:
